Join us for an online support group meeting hosted by our new Teen Group Leader, Lyd, specifically for teens aged 13-18 with ADEM, AFM, MOGAD, NMOSD, ON, or TM! Connect with others your age and discuss what it’s like living with a rare neuroimmune disorder. All teens are welcome to ask questions, share their stories, or listen. Please consider this an online social hour, where we will have informal conversations and create connections among teens living with a rare neuroimmune disorder. This group is peer-led by a teen with a rare neuroimmune disorder, and this meeting will not be led by medical professionals. Attendees can come and ask questions of one another and SRNA.
This group is meant for teen participants only. We kindly ask that parents/guardians of attendees do not attend.
Participant Waiver: A parent or guardian of a minor in attendance must consent and complete the participant waiver before the start of the meeting. This is a requirement for your participation and to allow you access to the meeting. If your parent or guardian has questions or concerns regarding the waiver, please have them email us with any questions.
